01:01 The Wangchenggang Site in Dengfeng Where Is the Capital City of the Xia Dynasty?
登封王城岗遗址:“夏之王城”今何在
In 1959, to seek the sites of the Xia Dynasty, Xu Xusheng, a famous Chinese archaeologist, discovered the Wangchenggang Site between Gaocheng town and Bafang village, which is of great significance due to its special location. According to historical documents, Yangcheng (阳城), a capital city of the Xia Dynasty or where Yu (who built the Xia Dynasty) was living, is located near Gaocheng town.
1959年，为寻找“夏墟”，著名考古学家徐旭生在登封市告成镇与八方村之间调查发现了王城岗遗址。由于其地理位置与古史记载的“禹居阳城”的地望相符，对探索夏文化有极其重要的价值。

Three city ruins of the late Longshan Culture period (around 2500-2000 BC) were discovered at the Wangchenggang Site, of which the large one is also the largest of its kind during the late Longshan Culture period in the Central Plains, whose carbon-14 testing results are basically consistent with the first year of the Xia Dynasty presumed in the archaeological documents. Besides, pottery wares carved with the characters of Yangcheng (阳城) or Wares of Yangcheng (阳城仓器) were also discovered at a city ruin of the Warring States Period (475 BC-221 BC) located to the northwest of the large city ruin, thus proving the existence of a city named Yangcheng around the Wangchenggang Site as late as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770 BC-256 BC). These important findings suggest that the Wangchenggang Site was a capital city of the early Xia Dynasty, likely to be Yangcheng (阳城).
王城岗遗址先后发现有三座龙山晚期城址，其中，大城是面积超过30万平方米的大型城址，是中原地区龙山晚期面积最大的城址，且测年结果与文献推定的夏之始年基本相符;此外，距王城岗大城不远、东北方向的战国城址中出土的印有“阳城”“阳城仓器”戳记的陶器，证明至迟到东周时，在王城岗一带，存在被称为“阳城”的城市。这些发现，为王城岗遗址即为“禹居阳城”提供了极其重要的考古学证据。
In 2020, the Wangchenggang Site was proved as a key project (2020-2024) for the study of the Xia Dynasty by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. The discovery of the large rammed-earth foundation during the new round of excavation not only proves that the large city's northern and central part is a living area (most likely for aristocrats), which is helpful to understand its functional zones, but also offers some support for the central position of the large city in the Yinghe River basin and the appearance of the "states in embryonic form" around Songshan Mountain.
2020年，王城岗遗址被列入国家文物局“考古中国·夏文化研究”重大项目。在最新考古发掘中，大范围夯土基址得到确认，一方面证明大城中北部是生活居住区，且极有可能是贵族生活区，推进了对大城内部功能分区的认识;另一方面佐证了王城岗大城在颍河流域的中心地位及环嵩山地区“雏形国家组织”的出现。
Major discoveries include city ruins, bronze vessel fragments, foundation pits, sacrificial pit.
重要遗迹遗物:城址、青铜容器残片、奠基坑、祭祀坑。
